[Mid-Autumn Gift] Taboos and considerations about Mid-Autumn fruit hampers

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for celebrating the reunion of people and the moon. Many people take this opportunity to gift friends and family, expressing their sentiments. Since gatherings with friends and family are common during this festival, many choose to give food gifts that can be enjoyed together at these gatherings. While mooncakes are often the first choice for Mid-Autumn delicacies, their high-calorie content means they shouldn't be consumed in excess. Sharing fruits while appreciating the moon can be a good alternative for health reasons. In recent years, many have opted to send fruit hampers containing various types of fruits as gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, not all fruits are suitable for gifting during this occasion; if they violate certain taboos, it may lead to discomfort for the recipient. Therefore, it's essential to carefully select fruits when ordering a Mid-Autumn fruit hamper to ensure appropriateness. Below are some taboos and considerations to keep in mind when choosing a fruit hamper for gifting during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

 

Taboos for Sending Fruit Hampers

Here are some important taboos to consider when ordering a Mid-Autumn fruit hamper:

  • Avoid unsuitable fruits: If the fruit hamper contains fruits that some friends or family cannot eat, it may spoil the festive atmosphere of the gathering. For example, certain long-term patients may have dietary restrictions regarding specific fruits. It's advisable to check if any guests have relevant health issues before ordering the hamper to avoid including unsuitable fruits. Additionally, some foods should not be eaten with certain fruits; for instance, consuming crabs and oranges together can cause severe stomach pain. If crabs will be served at the gathering, avoid choosing a fruit hamper that includes oranges.

 

Considerations for Sending Fruit Hampers

When ordering a Mid-Autumn fruit hamper, consider the following:

  • Choose a high-quality hamper: If you want your gift to be presentable, opt for a high-end fruit hamper. Selecting lower-priced options may result in poor-quality fruits, which could affect the overall experience of the gathering. To create lasting memories on this special night of moon appreciation, it's best to choose a higher-quality hamper.
  • Select appropriate fruits based on needs: Different fruits have unique benefits. You can choose fruit hampers that include specific fruits based on your friends or family members' needs. For instance, papayas and strawberries are known for their beauty and weight loss benefits; if your gathering primarily includes women, selecting a hamper with these fruits can showcase your thoughtfulness.
